There are two methods that occur to me, but you’re not likely to be happy with 
either one.

(1) Go to Safari>Preferences>Passwords. Select all the passwords and click 
“Show passwords for selected websites.” It won’t let you copy or print the 
page, but you can make screenshots.

(2) In the terminal, there’s a very powerful command security 
<https://developer.apple.com/legacy/library/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man1/security.1.html>.
 It can be used with a script to extract all your passwords.

Apple is intentionally making this hard to do.
